why dont you just use the blue line and install the bootcamp windows drivers under windows and you get sound from the blue line under windows.

Hi Guys!

Any news from the SigmaTel-Audio-Front?
I'm using a 9225.

Any improvements?

I also have an M1210, and it works on the first earphone jack smile.gif
Nice guys... i'd be nice if the speakers worked tho.

"Rogabean" is working on an driver for Sigmatel 9250, however, he's sick for the moment, so let's say that the project is stalled out for the moment. It looks that this will take a while.
Any ideas about how to get Sigmatel 9250 working?

Hi Nerds,

Well dont know where to start.

offtopic.gif start
My specs are down in my signature. I came here first time 5 days ago when I started this insane project of installing that Software on my Toshiba Laptop. I own 3 pre G3 macs and one Umax and I never liked Steve Jobs hardware after quicktime became payware and 3d rendering became way cheaper and faster on X86.
offtopic.gif end

After setting my BIOS CPU frequency scaling to off (Always Low) and Sleep States disabled

I installed the

JaS 10.4.6 DVD (probably 14x) before I patched with the

JaS.10.4.8.SSE3.Intel.Only.Combo.Update (about 6x)...

BTW: Am I supposed to install SSE2 and SSE3 patches or only SSE3.

As I'm writing my Aqua Desktop next to me hangs again probably because of another APIC CPU0 kernel panic.
help.gif I tried (cpus=1 idlehalt=0 platform=X86PC fn=3 fsb=166) in all combinations

The Intel Pro1000 ethernet works and the macvidia driver 1.08 allows me to change resolution.

It works for maximum 3 hours in idle or 40 minutes surfing safari and using terminal for editing and searching kextfiles before it suddenly hangs... help.gif

My Audio is 8384 7690 same like so many others here before. It seems this fix only works for 8384 7680 and still after reading all the Sigmatel Threads I still don't see the realtionship between vendor ID, Device ID and those cryptic strings for the codecs inside AppleHDA.kext/Contents/Info.plist or AppleHDA.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleHDA like 2206496386 and 85 or 84 and "80 76 84 83" with "81 76 84 83" ...
Is that all you are editing ?
Can someone please enlighten me. (a hint might be enough)

Thanks in advance

Hello, I have a Dell Inspiron 6400, with a Sigmatel 9220.

I dont know how to get my VendorID and DevID?
Plus i dont know if there's a "automatic" way of getting the info footer that everyone has. Sorry, I am brand new on OS X.

Thanks in advance

^ Thanks. I haven't really been to this site in several months (consistently). Sorry for all those asking for help and got no response.

I would like to say, however, I have failed in trying to make this work for any other chipsets. Plus, I don't have any others to test with. By all means, keep trying. I just need to update the first post.

Hey guys,

I know my card is a Sigmatel, but i'm not sure what type.
These details are as follows:

Vendor - 8384
Device - 7634

Anyone have any luck getting sound from one of these?
I'll be trying on the weekend, but the curiosity is getting
the best of me smile.gif

I got sound from the Mic port, but the volume is so low I can barely hear it even with the software volume all the way up and cranking the hardware speaker volume.

Is there a way to up the volume even more in software?

This work around for the STAC9220 worked for me i have an Intel D945GCL mobo. Now all i need is a network connection.........


btw i used the JaS.10.4.8.AMD.Intel.SSE2.SSE3 DVD then patched it with

JaS.10.4.8.AMD.Intel.SSe2.SSe3.v1p
then
Defiant_diskutil_7
then
bikedude880.ichXr.ppf

if anyone has any suggestions for getting networking going let me know....have tried a few with little success

edit:just realised that i didn't need this in the first place.....its already done with the patches i used
friend_kami
right. so ive finally got my hackbox working with 1280x1024 resolution, so i figured "lets tackle the sound issue now then". ofcourse my m-audio audiophile 2496 card wont work (shame on m-audio for releasing universal drivers for all firewire/usb cards, but not the pci cards heh), and after reading several threads i came onto this one (again).

my vendor id is 1039, and my device id 7012, inside a Packard Bell Imedia 1505 box. unfortunately this doenst work, i have followed all the guides referring to this card, and none of them work, which leads me to think thats perhaps ive missed something. i remember having trouble finding the right drivers for this card running on windows, and eventually ended up with an ac97 driver of some sort, so should i go out a find a patched ac97 driver aswell as follow these instructions?

bare with me here people, since im kind of a noob on osx, and not that great with *nix systems in general. atleast its working now, although sound wouldnt be too bad to get aswell ^^.

any suggestions then?

edit: uyhea. 10.4.6 JaS then hehe.


after checking out another thread atleast now ive actually got a soundcard and playback, although its silent, before i couldnt even find the card, so progress i guess. i think i might know whats wrong, get back to you on that then.


edit: i blame my hungoverness ; wrong cables plugged in. lalalala..

/me hides.

keep them hacks coming.

In case you may have missed it, I have a fix for Intel PRO 10/100 VE network adapters too... You should have that network adapter.

I got this to work, but sound is coming from the blue output port.

The information for the sound card is as follows:-

Vendor ID: 8384
Device ID: 7680

If I'm not mistaken, that's the Sigmatel 9220.

Mac OS X version is 10.4.8.

The motherboard is the Intel D945GCZ.

I have one question though, is there any way to modify the driver to change the pin setup? I mean, changing the sound output port?

Thanks again for the driver.

Ok heres whats going on. My sound will work flawlessly for about 30 seconds to a minute when I play something in iTunes, after that it gets choppy and glitchy. I go into my system profiler and under audio it says no devices are installed. I am running uphuck 1.4i r3 on a Dell Latitude D610. Here are my sound card specs.

Audio:
Sigmatel C-Major Audio (Sigmatel 9751)
Dev ID:PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_266E&SUBSYS_01821028&REV_03&61AAA01&0&F2

Do I need to just add my Dev ID into the plist info somewhere?

wilhelmmm
is mute button working with this method?
pee_riz
right ladies, im a noob myself but it worked for me so ill just share eh, i did exactly as the page 1 method sayed

"
1. Download AppleHDA.kext from 10.4.3 (attached in zip format).
2. Copy to /System/Library/Extensions/ and replace original (backup would be a good idea).
3. Open Terminal
4. Type "sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache"
5. Type "sudo kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions
6. Open up Disk Utility
7. Choose the "Repair Disk Permissions" button. It should start up. It may or may not fix things... Mine didn't repair anything, but I did is as a precaution.
8. Reboot.
9. Open up System Preferences/Sound to confirm audio. I have both output and input, but I have to check inputs.
10. My audio is coming out of the subwoofer port (black). I would try all of them if it doesn't work with black.
"

after this i wanted my hi def sound working, so i can across this page

- http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=32859

and downloaded the HDApatcher v1.16, then went to

- http://psykopat.free.fr/apple/AppleHDA/

and downloaded the codec dump named "codec_sigma9220.txt"

i put the HDApatcher in System/Librarys/Extensions then dragged and dropped the codec dump file on the patcher icon, followed the instructions and rebooted once it told me to and hey presto, i have the audio comming out the green terminal rolleyes.gif

let me know how yous all get on

worked fine on my 9150, and all the inputs/Outputs work (I admit they do all give the same stereo output signal, but hey there is sound).

Hey all... I've got success with the audio issue. I have a Sigmatel 9220.

BTW, my VendorID is 8384 and my DevID is 7680, which is 9220. This was done on 10.4.7. It should work all the way back to 10.4.3 though.

Continuing. Here's the process. I made it easy and complete step-by-step for people new at it.

1. Download AppleHDA.kext from 10.4.3 (attached in zip format).
2. Copy to /System/Library/Extensions/ and replace original (backup would be a good idea).
3. Open Terminal
4. Type "sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache"


not sure about the model of my sigmatel audio (Sigmatel STAC9271D) onboard my Intel DP35DP mobo. osx86 leopard won't make it work & i'm unsuccessful w/ ur guides. pls. advise.


C0ReDump
It is working in Leopard for me, mine is Sigmatel 9220, mobo is Intel D945GTP. I just got it working so here comes the post. Just remove original Leo's AppleHDA.kext from /System/Library Extensions usig finder or in terminal
sudo rm -R /System/Library Extensions/AppleHDA.kext
and drop the one i have attached into the same location, use cp or mv commands from wherever you placed the file:
sudo cp -R AppleHDA.kext /System/Library Extensions/
Then:
sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions.mkext
sudo kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions


Open Disk utility and repair permissions on Leopard disk, after that
sudo reboot

That should do it for 9220, just stereo, no 5.1 but it is better than no sound tongue.gif


I just have to enable EFI and that's it.

Coredump, this line :
sudo rm -R /System/Library Extensions/AppleHDA.kext

may cause to delete all extensions files!!! i don't know much about unix, but the -R is very dangerous.

One question for you, i see you have the same board and the same processor as me. You said : I just have to enable EFI and that's it.
With Pentium D is posible to enable EFI??? which version? v8?

Hi,
you're right about the danger of -R switch. -R removes the folder and it's contents so if you make a mistake and go without .kext extension at the end then you're in trouble and all Extensions folder is gone, and you can use the command in previous post without -R switch, that may be safer.
About Pentium D, I am not sure, everybody is talking about having C2D or quad in order to run, and i have bad feeling that it's not going to work with EFI, after all there is no real Mac that has Pentium D, so it cannot be identified as one. All i was getting is ACPI model so far. Once I'm done with iATKOD download I'll test it and see how it works with this release.
I am thinking on getting XFX nForce 680i LT SLI Motherboard with Nvidia 680i chipset but I'm not sure how OSX86 compatible are NV chipsets. I've read somewhere that it has SATA issues, but I don't know for sure. This is the mobo:
http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/Sea...p;Sku=P450-9102
Cheap and good, very similar to EVGA mobo with same features.
If someone knows please post the answer.

Just to let you know, with new Kalyway 10.5.1 Leo disk, EFI v8 is enabled and Hackintosh is recognized as Mac Pro, even with Pentium D inside.

I have an Intel 945GLGA775 and my sound doesn't want to work with C0reDump's kext. I installed using kalyway. The vanilla kernel didn't want to work and I installed using mbr. I didn't check off any of the included drivers. Geekbench recognizes my comp as Hackintosh not Mac. How can I enable efi and is that the solution to my problem?

I wonder if anyone can help me, I'm a mac noob and audio works when it wants to!

Hi, I'm running Mac OS X Leopard on a Dell Dimension 9150.
I have a SigmaTel 9220 (Vendor: 8384, Device: 7680)

Got it working a few times, but each time it works, it only lasts for about 2 reboots before I get nothing again.

I had good sound from the green port a few times.
I had good sound from the black port a couple of times.
I also had crappy sound from the black port once.

The first thing I did was to use the AppleHDA patcher, this backed up AppleAzaliaAudio.kext. Nothing happened.
Then I thought the backup it made was my AppleHDA.kext, so I renamed it and put it back in the Extensions folder. (I didn't understand about .kexts at the time). This got it working out of the green port great for about 2 reboots.

Since then, if I poke around with the files (diff versions of AppleHDA.kext and inserting and taking out AppleAzaliaAudio.kext) and then run a script, it works for 1 reboot on whatever port it likes (although it is good quality sound). The AppleHDA.kext I'm using now is the one on the first page of this thread.

This is the script I run after playing with the files:

CODE
sudo rm -R /System/Library/Extensions.mkext
sudo rm -R /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache
sudo rm -R /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kernelcaches/*

sudo kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions

sync

sudo diskutil repairpermissions /

sudo reboot


it ALWAYS says I don't have /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache

What is going on? Why does it only work for 1 reboot?

I'd be very grateful if anybody could explain what I'm doing wrong.

hi

here is the driver for sigmatel 9220
The information for the sound card is as follows:-Vendor ID: 8384Device ID: 7680

install this driver on leopard or tiger then repair disk permissions using disk utility.
reboot
you will get the sound from the blue output jack

Click to view attachment
is there any way to change the output jack if anybody know pls help.
biggrin.gif

pls reply if this pkg is working for you
charlescw
I tested both the AppleHDA.kext in the first thread and the Sigmatel9220Audio.Support.pkg mention above on my Dell XPS M1210 running Kalyway leopard 10.5.1.

Mine is Sigmatel 92xx, vendor is 8384, device is 7680. Here are the results:

The AppleHDA.kext works, but only for earphone, and the sound coming out from Left is very good, but from the Right is bad with a lot of noise. I used Kext Helper to finish the kext file installation. Here is what Kext Helper did:

"cp -R /Users/charlescao/Downloads/AppleHDA.kext /System/Library/Extensions/
chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext
chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext
touch /System/Library/Extensions
exit
sudo -k"

The .pkg above did not work unfortunately. It's a self installation package, after installation and reboot, the system said the "IO...kext" and "..controller..kext" stuff are not installed correctly. And there is no audio device found. I had to deleted the AppleHDA.kext from the Extension folder. sad.gif

I suddenly realize if I need to delete the original AppleHDA.kext first, then run the .pkg!?

Anyway, I will make a try. BTW many thanks for your guys work. Sorry for my English if I didn't make myself clear.

@vakakush:

I have tried, but it does not work for me. Maybe you should check the plugins for AppleHDA.kext. They just cannot be installed.

after installing this package you have to repair disk permissions using disk utility.
my sound card is sigmatel 9220 and this pkg is working fine for me (running on tiger and leopard)
after repairing disk perm you will not get this "IO...kext" and "..controller..kext" stuff are not installed correctly.
charlescw
@vakakush:

thanks for your hints! It works finally, however the sound still only comes out from line out. I have to use earphone.

but the sound is much better than it was.
